WAYKI SOCIAL EXPERIENCE

Goals

Currently many teenagers who live in rural communities cannot access a decent After School Reinforcement, due to their parents working on their daily activities and not having enough time to dedicate to their children and in most cases parents have no education to help in these situation or they simply cannot afford school supply expenses, this is why Wayki Trek came up with this idea of creating a Reinforcement School. With this we aim to improve our children and teenagers skills and knowledge. Based on this premise, we look for people interested in supporting this cause, we have therefore come up with the plan of volunteering teaching lessons for them in the afternoons. In order to be able to develop this activity we are in a constant search of volunteers, amongst teachers and students with studies in Mathematics, Art, Computers, English, PE, etc. at the same time people who are willing to just teach these young children are welcome to do so.

Social Projects

Wayki Trek believes, it is a priority to help and assist in the development of local Andean communities. That is why, we are actively collaborating to eradicate problems like the loss of self-identity, lack of basic services, low education levels, little economic development and migration to big cities due to extreme poverty. In an effort to reverse this, Wayki Trek has implemented projects that help to minimize the impact of this problems in the communities. The construction of a Medical Clinic and a rural Library are examples of that effort.
